A lot of people will attribute my latest invention to magic

but it's not. It's also not the flapping motion shown. The secret to flight, I have found, is wing shape. Before you criticize, I realize this was not a long flight, but I still was able to accomplish what I set out to do. Keep in mind, this is cardboard. I plan on honing the design and building a new set out of balsa wood. I hope this will be ready for the NC State game.

of making it look like the guy actually flew with his cardboard wings. He better not get too close to the sun, though, cardboard wings don't melt like wax, they BURN like cardboard!

IF you want longer flight time,

my advice would be to launch your manned aircraft from the top floor of an office building, preferabley 12 stories or taller.

Will you be manufacturing & selling the balsa wings
Aug 26, 2022, 9:56 AM

once you've perfected the design? Or at least making the plans available to people?
It's always been a dream of mine to be able to fly.

That is some good fishing line being used there. Maybe Spud knows what brand it is.

You would need man fishing line to pull off magic like that, so I am not sure Spud can be of much help.

He catches Mermaids as well doesn't he? It's gotta be the same fishing line.
